Great Article regarding ED billing trends. --- Is it real or is it Fraud?
I am sure electronic medical records will impact across all areas of the medical practices in how services will be billed and ultimately increase overall medical costs.
It will be interesting to see the trend over the next few years when doing cost research and how it will impact the life care plan bottom-line.
